have purchased 1000 ct egyptian cotton sheets from overstock in the past and am disappointed in this set. these sheets were more like 400 to perhaps 600 ct in softness and thickness. in addition i found them to be somewhat skimpy in size. i would not buy them again nor recommend them to others.

These are the scratchiest 1000-thread counts I've ever encountered, which I presume is why the price is so reasonable. I expect these will soften with use but I still would have preferred a softer texture from the start, as is achieved by other high-thread-count sheets.
Pros: deep fitted pocket fits my sleep number mattress + 4 inch memory foam topper. The color I ordered (stone/taupe) is beautiful.
Cons: unpleasant texture

As the title implies, I've been buying high thread-count sheets for years now. When you first buy a pair of high thread-count sheets, sure, they're heavy, but they shouldn't be overly stiff as these sheets are. And with washing, they get softer over time. I have sheets from about 6 years ago, that, while they are getting a bit worn now, are probably the softest sheets ever, and they were like that when I took them out of the package.
These are probably a double ply sheet. They're very stiff and yes, heavy, but it's like wearing a canvas blanket. I've had them for about six months now and they haven't really softened up at all, like I hoped they would. I don't know who you're trying to fool, Overstock, but it isn't me. You used to have great sheets, but not anymore. These are cast-offs.

The color of the sheets is lovely but the quality is very poor. I have washed them many times and while the sheets themselves don't seem to pill, they literally shed onto everything, i.e., mattress pad, blankets, quilt, nightgown and carpet. The seams in the pillow cases started coming apart after one wash.

The word santeen conjures up images of satin and silk and softness...not scratchiness, which these sheet are. I've had them close to a year now and through several washes and they have not softend one bit. I won't go so far as to say they feel like cardboard. They are a bit heavy, so I only sleep on them during the fall/winter season. The photo makes them look shiny, but they are not shiny at all. However, they are a nice chocolate color. I have sheets with lower thread count that feel silkier than these. These sheets aren't awful, but they do not live up to their reputation.

I also have a split king adjustable bed and the highest thread count I could find on here for it was 650, but they're still very nice. I've decided to go with the 1500 count though, nothing beats them, we can still adjust the bed differently just not a lot.

"I made a big mistake before buying "Sateen" sheets not realizing that they meant you will go sliding off on the floor if you sit on them! Even worse if your nighties are silky, or slippery material. Its a shame, bought them here, put them on bed, beautiful feel to them, color is perfect spot on for the entire set of bedding I bought here for our Master also. GORGEOUS. But next thing I hear is my husband say CAREFUL they are really slippery!!
I guess I thought Sateen meant shiny, and just never bought any before from regular stores because they were so expensive but of course with Overstock the PRICE WAS RIGHT and I was able to get a super nice set for our California King, and afford them.
Well anyway, yes I sat on my bed and I did have to keep my rear up there by keeping my feet pressed to the floor or side board. Not good with me being disabled and so far I have ended up on the floor twice now. :/
So, Overstock, strange voice we hear in return responses, what is the story with Sateen? And then if there is an issue with sliding, which they do NOT slide off the mattress pad at all, its just US that slide off, LOL, does it go away after a washing or two? Or three? Cause I will not return these they are just too beautiful of a color I could never match again. Even thought of getting another to switch them back and forth, or the same ones in sage. But I sure dont want to hit the floor again right?
Also, the ones that are described other ways which give me the idea they are also not just shiny but slippery? They dont just describe them as being 600 thread count and cotton and you knew exactly what we were getting.
Thank you for any help for us and Its pretty dang obvious I have not bought sheets in a long time to not know about all these slippery ones."

Hey thanks Overstock for the reply. No need for me to call because as I said I do not want to return them.
I also found out with me being a bit short at 5'3" I need to sit back on the bed a bit further, or as far as I can LOL, so I do not slide off as easily. Also it seems the more we sleep on them, or we get used to them, they are not as slippery.
Definately do not have any of these shedding issues or feeling like cardboard issues others are speaking off.
They are not just the beautiful color, but soft, cuddly, and yes a bit thicker then "normal" sheets but in the winter that is good with just the blanket on top or off. We sleep warm so we just use the sheets mostly unless its a particularly cold night and its great.
Like I said, love them other then the slipping off thing that just takes some practice when not ever having "Sateen" Sheets before.

Hello sale girl, thank you for shopping with us. The sheets are not wrinkle free. Oh my, when I opened the package to check for a label the first thing I noticed was how soft they feel; I want a set. Have a great day.

Wow, me too in the soft department! If you want a thin sheet you need to try the 100 thread count which used to be all that I could afford and then it was not often back in the newlywed thin years.
Its awesome that I can buy a set of sheets here for ** dollars that would cost me *** or even more in a department store, not break the pocketbook and get this wonderful high quality set to feel like a Queen in.

Hello Roger, I hope your day is going well. It is possible to get sheet suspenders and one of the large neighborhood stores to tighten up these sheets. I could not find sheets for 8-12 inch mattresses. I apologize for not being more helpful.

"I got a silver city plush euro pillowtop mattress and I measured it and its 16 inches this says it fits "up to" 18 inches. My question is will the fitted sheet fit work? Has anyone else bought it trying to fit it on a smaller depth mattress? Will the fitted sheet shrink slightly after washing it? Also this is 100% Egyptian Cotton and not mixed with any other material? Thanks. I'm a first time luxury sheet buyer."

Hello Kiaeneto, yes, it should work fine on a mattress that is not 18 inches deep. It may have some shrinkage, depending on how it is washed. However, out of 751 reviews, it has an overall rating of 4.1 out of 5. We hope this helps. Thank you for shopping with us.

"I would like to know if more colors are going to be offered. In the picture above, it says that there are chocolate colored sheets but from the drop down box, it appears that they are not available to purchase. Is Overstock going to get a fresh supply of sheets in other colors?"
